ANDY WARHOL
Mao.

Original Xerox Print on Typewriter Paper, 1973. 280x215 mm; 11x8 1/2 inches, full margins. Signed and numbered 232/300 in pen and black ink with artist's stamp at lower margin, verso. Printed by Julie Martin, New York. Published by Experiments in Art and Technology, New York. A superb impression.

This print is based on a drawing of Mao, from which Warhol created a unique Xerox print. Each print derives from the original by elongating the image by 1-2%, resulting in higher edition numbers that are more abstract than lower edition numbers. Feldman 89.
